Fast food fried chicken ranked by Joshua Weissman

[Berserker13]

Jolibee is alright but the price point is too high for fast food. I think I picked up some 12 piece meal that came with pies and sides. The total was around 60 something? The spaghetti was kinda gross but the pies were really good.

Oh yea if any sherbro likes fried chicken. I think KFC has a meal deal every tuesday? 8 pieces for ten bucks.

Comes with a free side of diarhea. Only one wet wipe per customer

Cultural appropriation imo.

I thought it is new in America? Did you have it in the Philippines or something?

It is sort of new (resurgence), but in Carson, a heavily philipino city, there was one stashed away.

There was one near me when I lived in Vegas. Wish I had tried it. Nobody ever talked about it though. Jollibee also owns 100% of the Smashburger chain.

Maybe it's cause I'm in Canada but popeyes has been awful each time I tried it (the sandwich is great though) but the chicken piece meals were terrible everytime. I always see people rave about it

 

[Richmma80]

It depends so much on the management of the particular location. They're the ones that dictate how good the food is cooked.

Jollibee is trash

 

[Brandino]

I saw the pic of Jollibees being #1? That's a joke right? Jollibees is near the bottom around here, people were excited when it first opened and then tried it and were not fans of the extremely low quality chicken and ketchup spaghetti.

I can feel the "Free Palestine" spirit in me whenever I see him.

Underrated post lol

Church's chicken was always trash from what I remembered

 

[Jesus X]

I recall jolibees being complete trash a few decades ago. Tried it recently and it’s really good. I have a soft spot for churches, seems like the only place i can get okra, and the biscuits are great.

Churches used to have jalapeño poppers iirc

 

[Streeter]

Canes an Zaxbys. Are best

Churches for an actual Fried chicken dinner.

Davea Hot is terrible either.

Hos ranking makes no sense. LJS at top and Canes at bottom? Only one the got right is Churches

I used to go to the Jollibee in Carson it's on carson st.

I drive like 20 miles to go to pioneer

I haven’t had Pioneer in forever. I’m guessing it still slaps hard AF if you’re trekking 20 miles for it.

Yes it is still high quality it has like 1970s customer service still too. it doesn't have that nihilistic Gen Z customer service.

 

[Why did you]

Who is Joshua Weissman and why should I care what he thinks

valid point

That’s it. I’m hitting it up next week. I just check and there are 2 locations! One is only 5 miles from me!!

I thought about picking up some church’s when I was out of state on vacation but was driving back home on a 9 hour drive and was too eager to get back home rather than stop. Those aren’t around where I live. Anyone here recommend them?

My first job was at Long John Silvers lol. I'm not sure if things have changed much since it's been 25+ years, but they were basically thinly breaded chicken fingers. The employee actually battered them before putting in fryer unlike a lot of fast food places. I liked them, but also shocked to see in the top.

Other places dont batter chicken before frying it?
